Breaking Bad Finale and the Slowing of Sacramento Short Sales

By
Real Estate Agent with Elizabeth Anne Weintraub, Broker DRE #00697006

breaking bad sacramento short salesEvery good thing must come to an end at some point to allow room for something else, and the end of AMC's Breaking Bad, coupled with the slowing of Sacramento short sales, seem to coincide. I was thinking about that yesterday when I drove to a home near Elk Grove to meet with the sellers, a charming couple who had moved to another town.

Last year at this time short sales were closing escrow hand-over-fist, and this year the inventory of short sales in Sacramento has dropped by about 80%. Thank goodness this Sacramento real estate agent sells other types of real estate than just short sales.

Did you watch the season finale of Breaking Bad last night? Read more in my personal blog today on my business website about Breaking Bad Sacramento Short Sales. I promise, no spoiler.

Glad your short sales are dwindling there for you Elizabeth. In general that is a healthier housing market.

I am one of those people who never did see one episode, but will look forward to indulging myself from the beginning.  I hear only good things about the series.

Elizabeth-Put me in the Chris Ann group as in having never seen an episode. Lots of people liked it, but I just never got around to it.

I watched about 10 minutes of the series and all of that was not one show.  For some reason it just did not grab my attention.

I wonder how healthy the market is overall in the United States. There are 34 million homes still unoccupied which would take 40 years to clear up. In Europe the years to clear up is about 30 years. We are not out of the mess, only just being lied too for our own good.
